Robot Walks On Water

Posted by timothy on Saturday September 11, 2004 @08:30AM from the jesus-bugs dept.

HaiLHaiL writes "MSNBC has an article on a water strider-inspired minirobot built by a Carnegie Mellon engineering professor. Nice." The article also summarizes some interesting recent research that explains how the real-life striders glide as they do. Update: 09/11 21:37 GMT by T : Thanks to Hank Zimmerman, I see that I missed this story the first time around -- mea culpa.

You are among the uneducated, I can see.

The bill John Kerry supossedly voted for and then against on was because it failed the first time and when it came back around, they added stuff to it so he voted against it.
